Well impressed with the machine. Recently bought a bi metal blade for non
ferrous metals.

Used it twice, once on copper pipe, once on some kinda alloy on an extended
flush operating rod.

Hard work on both. I think its because in both cases it was difficult to
keep the object still.

Is this also the case with the Fein?

If the work jiggle about too much then it can be. Changing speed to find
one where the work does resonate so readily can help (as can wedging the
work)....

(only time I remember particularly slow going was where I needed to trim
down a bit of heavy steel conduit in a wall to get a new switch position
in place.
